I don't have a picture of the coolant rail bleed screw. However if you look down the end of the engine above the gearbox you'll see the black iron coolant rail. The bleed screw is about 3 inches along from the bottom rad hose connection. It looks like a bolt into a pipe, which is exactly what it is
